Fuel Type To create heat, some form of fuel is required. Fuel Type specifies what the product uses as an input to create heat.

Liquid Propane

Vent Type Products that use combustion (burning) of fuel to create heat also create potentially dangerous gasses that need to be exhausted (AKA "Vented"). Depending on the product, venting can be done via a chimney, through a side wall, or use a second vent to provide fresh air to the appliance.

Direct Vent

Orientation Orientation describes the direction that air will flow through a piece of equipment. (e.g. air will flow horizontally through a "Horizontal" unit heater.) Most equipment will only function properly if installed in the proper orientation.

Maximum Input Capacity The Maximum Input Capacity describes how quickly the appliance will use fuel when delivering it's maximum capacity. The units may change depending on the fuel being used.

175000 BTU

AFUE AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) measures the efficiency of combustion equipment over the entire heating season, and is calculated by dividing the amount of energy that is actually heating your home by the total energy contained in the fuel used by the boiler/furnace. Learn More

Modine's BTS series brings Modine's engineering experience to large capacity unit heaters. The BTS175 is a well engineered unit heater capable of heating large areas with ease. Adjustable air deflector blades allow the owner to direct air to any point it needs to go, while the In-shot burner on each heat exchanger tube reduces startup and shut-off noise while maximizing reliability.

Product Features

Blower Based Air PropulsionThe BTS175 uses a blower for air movement. Although this adds a bit of clearance to the back of the unit heater when compared to a propeller, it allows for a range of air speed control and higher moveable air volume, as well as the ability to be integrated into a building's ductwork.

Aluminized Steel Heat ExchangerThe aluminized steel heat exchanger keeps costs low, is incredibly durable and is protected by a full 10 year warranty by Modine.

Ignition ControllerThe ignition controller is designed with safety in mind, and features built in ignition attempt timers. This minimizes the chance of false starts as well as preventing unneccessary gas from being used during the ignition process.

Permanently Lubricated MotorThe motor on the BTS175 has a permanent, long lasting lubricant straight from the factory. This means that the motor never has to be oiled, reducing maintenance costs, general wear and tear, and operational noise.

Seperated Combustion Venting SystemThe seperated combustion venting system quickly and efficiently brings flue exhaust from the unit heater to the outdoors while providing the unit heater with outdoor air for combustion. This keeps installation related costs as low as possible and preserves indoor air quality for any workspace.

Baked-On Polyester PaintThe BTS175 features a neutral colored baked-on polyester paint, providing excellent corrosion resistance and durability while blending in with a wide variety of environments.
